    - 2192, (Rev.) TIMOTHY LATHROP; b. Oct. 26, 1827; d. at Joliet, Ill., June 29, 1888; m. June 10, 1857, Julia a. Pratt; b. 1831, at Middletown, Pa.; dau. of Russell and Olive (Towner) Pratt. He was a clergyman in the M.E. Church. At eight years of age he came with his parents to Russell's Grove, Kane County, Ill., and three years later to Iowa. His father and mother were Christians and active members of the Congregational Church. His mother, who died when he was eleven, was sister to Joseph Colton of Colton's geography and maps. He was converted in September, 1843, at Fairplay, Wis., where he was engaged with his father in mining. He united with the Congregational Church, and was an earnest and faithful member. Desiring to obtain an education, he entered Wilbraham (Mass.) Academy, and had for his instructors such men as Miner Raymond, Oliver Marcy, and Geo. M. Steele. Here he remained for six years, studying hard and paying his own way. Among the students at this time were Fales H. Newhall, Bishop H.W. Warren, and Wm. Aug. Smith. On leaving school he taught for several years at Georgetown, near Washington, and then returned west, to Geneva, Ill. He began his career as a preacher under the presiding-eldership of Rev. S.P. Keyes, in the Rock River conference.
